The youth sports market valued at $37.5 billion globally is projected to grow by 9.2% annually through 2030, with around 60 million young athletes participating worldwide.
SkillShow, a leader in youth sports video production, used Amazon Transcribe and AWS ML services to automate video processing, reducing editing time and costs.
SkillShow faced operational challenges due to manual video editing processes, leading to increased costs and a 3-week turnaround time per event.
The solution involved audio logging and automated clip generation, offering superior player identification reliability and cost-effectiveness.
Key AWS services used included Amazon S3 for storage, AWS Lambda for processing workflows, and Amazon Transcribe for speech-to-text conversion.
The automated pipeline reduced video production time from 3 weeks to 24 hours per event, achieving a 93% success rate in accurately cutting and naming clips.
SkillShow's streamlined workflow increased its capacity to process multiple events simultaneously, enhancing player identification accuracy and viewing experiences.
The success of the solution showcases the potential of AWS ML services in transforming resource-intensive video processing workflows into efficient systems.
SkillShow continues to explore AI/ML capabilities for automated highlight generation, real-time processing, and deeper integration with sports leagues and organizations.
Organizations can leverage AWS ML services to automate workflows, reduce manual effort, and focus on delivering value to customers rather than managing complex editing operations.
